-12th
Ketchikan. Dolphin unloading freight
& went ashore two hours. Met Emmett Hunt
of Hillhurst, George Dyer - barber - of Tacoma
& others. Also called on and met Ex. Gov. Swine
=ford, and had a pleasant interview. He
seems friendly enough & suggested that I ought
to be a candidate for Gov. of Alaska, and not
for delegate. He shows signs of age - but is
yet a vigorous writer & a hard hitter.
-13th-
Our boat landed at Treadwell & I called
on McDonald - mgr. and he declared himself
& all his interests for me for Delegate. Also
went over to Juneau - met Judge Brown - and
Maloney, Shackleford, Tom Lyons & others &
they all assured me of their strong support
if the delegate bill passes. Saw Dr &
Mrs. Goddard & Mr & Mrs. Wm Berry -
Crab lunch with Judge & Mrs. Brown
